Manga Suggestion: Aphorism

I would like to see Aphorism picked up by XscansXThe current translator is some lone guy which is occupied by some other things, so obviously it takes quite a while for him to get a chapter done - no offense meant -Maybe you guys could get in touch with him, although he said that an other ScanlationGroup is allowed to pick up his project anytime.

we don't. The way the readers are stupidly doing things like thinking that those fucking parasites like mangahere.com, mangafox.com are "releasing" manga, there's no way we will take any request. I'm tired, all our fellow scanlator friends are tired. We don't get anything but recognizance for our work, and now not just those fucking parasites are getting credit for all our works, they make money off them as well. We are not doing more series.

To paint everyone with the same brush is unkind. Trying to equate readers who come to this forum to ask for a favor, which in this case is working on a desired manga, to websites that you feel are stealing from your work, is wrong.

Your chance will improve if you know what type of manga some of us like by spending some time hanging out with us here or on irc. There are a handful of manga that I personally would love to work on a chapter per a week basis. Of course I'm picky, and my priority is xscansx/trollscans first.... now if everything is handed to me on a silver plater (HQ Raws, typesetter, cleaner) plus If I like the series......timing is everything. Also I think if the group itself asked for a joint. It may carry a little more weight. I have no idea what that title is....maybe I look after I get home, shower, eat, and catch up on my stacks of manga.

Hadou, I think you misunderstood what Tran was saying.It's not that he's blaming the fans, or "painting them with the same brush" as he does with the mangareader sites. He's saying that now with all the mangareader sites and their ignorant communities thinking that the sites are doing the work, he doesn't feel that we should put in more work than we already are.

Think about it, we'd just be doing yet another series for those sites to rip.At the moment we have 30 series at xscansx, another 6 at our sister group TrollScans.On top of bringing you those series, we're currently dealing with our lack of staff issue (people retiring, or just disappearing), people bitching about our work, people competing with us over series, and reader sites taking our work. We might have to cut back and drop some of the series we're doing now.

The fact that someone is already scanning that series shouldn't be taken for granted. On their site, the group said that they'll be taking a 2 week break, then they'll be back at it.

We don't want to take up the series, then get into yet another fight with their group when they get back.So sorry, we won't be picking up that many more manga. It's not worth the headache at the moment.

everyone can help -.- , it's not like you need to be a scanlator to motivate us. Everyone can do things like posting on facebook, google+, to reveal the true face of those fucking parasites or at least tell other people about who is doing the real work here. Ignorance is to be blamed, but not lack of knowledge. If the readers know of such fact, come and thanks us, talk with us (yeah, we love to talk xD), that will surely motivate us, no? Rather than this fucking bastard who lied to you guys:http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/219/91744868.png/

ah no, don't worry, i was feeling betrayed there by the stupid leechers on that mangahere.com fucker site. And the reason we can't take any more or do any faster release is that, staff problem, we need a lot a lot more editors. We are trying to get more projects but without editors (cleaners+typesetters), we can't do much. And, most of the old staff have left because they felt unmotivated because of fuckers like mangahere.com, mangachapter.net...so well, that's why we hate them and hardly can we take on new manga

If you are working on that many mangas, it would be better if you drop or put on hold some of those series. I wish I could help this team, but I do not have Photoshop; I looked at its price and is way out of my budget.

Advice: First work on the most popular series. As time passes, try to mix less popular series releases with those that are popular. The outcome of this approach will be better.

How about we choose what we want to do, rather than having people tell us what to keep and what to drop?

There are tutorials here (and on other sites) for photoshop; there's even videos on youtube. I'm considering getting photoshop and learning how to clean manga myself, so I've been checking things out. Google and scan group guides are our friends.
